You guys underestimate the delusion and bias of non-Juve supporters. It'll be said that people high up on the VAR committee are Juve fans, there'll be biased compilations on youtube that show the typical 4-8 decisions a team gets over a season.

I think after about 20 rounds this season we had one VAR decision go our way and 7 or 8 against us. I lost count. Most were fair that went against us but the ones that didn't go for us in the attacking phase are forgotten about.
In all the years of watching footy, with one exception, always saw refs give subconsciously give the benefit of the doubt to the best teams. Has happened in Serie A, EPL, La Liga, CL, EL, WCs.

The only exception has been us in the past 6 seasons. (The only exception to this was in 2014-15 where we benefited from ref mistakes in both Torino games and vs Chievo. But even in that season, Roma received favors in 6 of 7 games or 5 of 6 games in Dec and Jan, a streak I've never seen before.)

On the other hand, Napoli and Roma continuously benefit from these "subconscious benefits of doubt" for being top-3 teams. When Milan was in top-3 last season, it was soft PKs and favorable calls galore again. Their games against Bologna, Chievo, and both games against Sassuolo were ridiculous. Previous season when Inter was in #1 spot with Mancini, they too were receiving these favorable calls.

You've to be extra special to moan about us benefiting from ref calls these days.

Genoa - Juventus 2:4
Fiorentina - Juventus 0:2
Juventus - Sass 7:0

You see where this is going. It just happens. Like it happened to us yesterday.

Allegri is a great coach and it's going to be rather bad if he leaves us.

Sarri is a very good coach IMO. But then again, it's like people fail to realize that his 'game' at Napoli relys on Napoli players and their general technique. It's more down to Napoli than on Sarri.

Even if we had Sarri we wouldn't play like that. Not unless we buy many new players.

:agree: Let us go all-in against mid table sides. What counts is laying down a marker every now and again, not 20 points difference and still challenging in all competitions.
Still challenging because of lucky goal against Lazio or pure luck against fucking Tottenham.Luck is what keeps Allegri still in the race.His team plays like shit for more than a month.SPAL game whas nice example.
